Even though I only gave my phone number, I was surprised when the name came out! --Keitai Watch

We are currently using two lines because we want to reduce maintenance costs, but we also want to use 5G!

Two recently used mobile phones. OPPO A73 using Rakuten mobile line and Pixel 4a (5G) using mineo 5G.

One is Rakuten Mobile. Yes, I'm running a one-year free-of-charge campaign, so there's no reason I don't have this. As for 5G, the area is quite limited at the moment, so it seems a little difficult to experience, so I usually use it on LTE terminals.

The other is mineo. If you pay 200 yen a month for the cheap SIM usage fee, you can communicate with 5G. Well, let's leave the story about how this 5G experience is for the time being ...

I'm going to write a story that surprised me when I was using Rakuten Mobile for a while.

I had the opportunity to interact with a certain person (here, this person is tentatively referred to as "Mr. Yda") in a certain job. I told this person only my phone number and didn't register it in the phone book of my mobile phone.

but,

"Tenteroren ♪"

Isn't the name of "Yami Yumi" displayed at the same time as the ringing tone of the smartphone is heard? ...... Oh, that? Did I register Yda-san's name in the phone book ... I didn't ... No, no, I don't even know the name below !?

If you register it in the phone book, your name will appear like this. Even though I didn't register it in the phone book, the full name of the other party was displayed!

For the time being, when I received the call, "Good morning, Mr. Yamato. Well, it's surprising that Mr. Yamato was also a Rakuten mobile user," said Mr. Yda, who I know without a doubt.

電話番号しか教えていないのに、名前が出てきてあービックリした! - ケータイ Watch

Why was the name displayed !?

Didn't you know that? Mr. Yda told me that.

When making a call using Rakuten Mobile's smartphone, the call is usually made using "Rakuten Link", which makes the call free of charge. If the other party to call at this time is also a Rakuten Link user, the "Rakuten Link name" and "registered image" set in the account will be displayed to the other party.

Names and privacy settings registered in Rakuten Link.

You can set it to "Hide" in the privacy settings, but by default it is "Show" and "Rakuten Link Name" is registered with your real name. The privacy settings are quite deep in the Rakuten Link app. That's why everyone hasn't set it up, and usually when you make a call between Rakuten Mobiles, the person who made the call, the person who made the call, and the other party's "real name full name" are displayed, which is common sense for Rakuten mobile users. He told me that.

Well, I didn't know that there were no Rakuten users around me ...

"Well, really? Well, I'm not the pen name" Satoshi Yamato "..." "Yes, it was displayed with the real name (Pee) bare ♪"

Oh, is that so \ (^ o ^) /

Incoming call history screen. The name of the person who only knows the phone number remains in the arrival / departure history like this.

Well, it's not that it's inconvenient to know your real name, but I was a little surprised at the specification that your real name might be known to someone who only gives you your phone number.

Or, depending on how you think about it, it may be a useful function for some people, so I thought that I would like you to write it as a precaution even when you sign a contract with Rakuten Mobile's SIM or eSIM, for example. was. Depending on the person, it may be information that you do not want to be known.
